All gastric bypass is, is a tool. That is what was stressed by my surgeon. He said that while initially the surgery is the reason why I lost weight, the rest is up to me. The weight can be regained so I need to change my eating habits and increase my exercise. I made a lot of changes before surgery but still decided to have it well....because I was fucking huge... As for powdered food, I could go without drinking a protein shake everyday if I wanted to, but I like them too much to give them up.

Look what happens when I have too many purple popsicles.

Why?

Yep, its under control.

I think she wants to be stalked. She said she's bored.

Well, I had gastric bypass back in May so I was only taking in 700-900 calories the first 6 months because my new stomach being so small, only held an ounce of food at a time. After six months, it grows a bit to accomodate the body's needs. I last saw my doc in Sept., my labs are fine, mind you I have to take vitamins the rest of my life. Don't worry, I'm fine as long as I get adequate protein, keep taking my vitamins and drinking my water. I can contact my nutritionist any time, she usually gets back to me very quickly and she's the one that I go to with dietary stuff and she works closely with my doc.

I was on a plateau for a bit and I think it was because I wasn't eating enough. I was only eating 900 calories a day and working out 5 times per week. I'm not sure how many calories I burn when I am in Krav Maga class but when I do the elliptical and lift weights on the other days I am burning 600 calories. So basically my body was starving from what my nutritionist told me so she had me increase my calories to 1200 and I haven't had much of a problem since. Although, when I take my fight conditioning class on wednesdays I eat around 1400-1500 calories because that class is 90 minutes long and intense.

You know, if people clamped their nipples more often maybe they wouldn't be so uptight....

But Team America shouldn't be about accepting what one person says without question nor does it mean that we do not listen to what both sides have to say. We are a democratic society not Socialist or Communist where things are done the way the leader likes or else. Screw the parties, we can think for ourselves.

I just hope both parties can fucking learn to work together instead of against each other. THAT'S what is holding us back.

That movie sucked.

I didn't watch it but I saw bits and pieces on the news. I wasn't really impressed but I did think it was hilarious every time Pelosi would jump up to clap, just looked like she was getting her ass pinched.

Hello, can I come in?

Hi!

watching Eddie Murphy Raw.

Let me return the : I finally got home from my friend's funeral. I'm exhausted and still thinking about what happened to her. It was heartbreaking to listen to her 5 year-old daughter speak at the funeral about how much she loved her mommy. I do believe the cops have a suspect in mind but I am just not understanding why it happened and I probably never will. I just hope they find him.

Shitty.

Aww come on, they are cute.

I just woke up.

I'm feeling the same way.

I agree with the above comments. Don't say you are gonna do something, especially telling someone you are gonna buy a gift and then totally backtrack on it and complain about all the bills ya gotta pay. I'd be irritated. Just don't buy me anything at all then.
